We each have our sides. It may change when we stay at hotels because my husband wants to be further from the door for some bizarro cop reasoning that I can’t recall exactly at the moment. When he was recovering from shoulder surgery, we switched sides. It didn’t go well. He ended up sleeping in the other room.

He teases me about my being a bed hog but I firmly maintain I am not the bed hogger- he is with his ridicously broad, man shoulders. Seriously, he has 100 pounds on me. How can I be the bed hog? Silly husband!

I sleep on my side plus half of his side. We recently switched sides, though- my bed has to be against the wall because the room is so small and I am currently on the outside because he likes the way the wall side of the mattress feels better (?). I’m a fan because I’m the claustrophobic one, even though it means I’d get murdered first haha.

At home we sleep on our own sides every night.. However I really sleep in the middle lol. When we sleep elsewhere (visiting friends/family hotels) it depends… It’s not like we have to be on left or right.. I like to sleep away from the door so thats how we pick sides. Or if the bed is against a wall, I sleep against walk because he hates sleeping by walls.

@missfrillycoat: Haha, I don’t know. We both like to sleep on different sides. We never had a side in the first place, when one of us is away we both sleep in the middle of the bed. Honestly I hate sleeping on the same side for too long, and so does Fiance. Max number of days we will sleep on the same side of the bed is 4, then we will intentionally swap because it feels uncomfortable…

@mrswestcoast: It is a pain because our bedside tables are shared and always a mess, that is the only positive I could see in always sleeping on the same side. But in reality we could just have our own bedside tables…

Always always always! I have a full bed to myself (and a queen at my parents’ house), and I even then I only sleep on one side.

I was horrified when I discovered my Fiance insisted that he sleep on that same side and that I should move over! He even admitted it used to not be “his” side because his ex made them swap long ago, and ever since then he’s been used to it. I insisted that meant he could swap again. lol

I didn’t win on that one. So now at my place I sleep on my normal side, and at his place I sleep on the other side. It’s been long enough that it doesn’t feel too weird though. Who knows who will sleep where when we get our own place!
